Top 300 Keeper League Skaters – March 2018

Dobber

2018-03-05

Here are the Top 300 skaters to own in your points-only keeper leagues.

 

This month is the final month in which 'this year' points projection will be used. In April we look to next season and the two seasons after that. Remember, players within +/- 5.0 rating points of each other should be considered equal and become a matter of team need and personal bias. Check back tomorrow for the Top 100 keeper league defensemen list.

Click on any player name to be taken to their fantasy hockey profile, with all the stats you need for quick analysis for your league.

    If it’s a “keeper” list i’m just curious as to why is there such monster +- when there’s an injury.

      A big part of it is immediate help. An injury makes the player completely without value for every single GM going for the win this year – so nearly half the teams become uninterested in that player, if he’s out for 20 or 30 games.

        I agree with this observation and the above one, as a “keeper” league imo presupposes a longer viewpoint.

        I
        am in a points-only, keeper pool (27 years now), and I can say that a
        list reflecting player “value” in that pool. as would be reflected in a
        player’s trade value, would include a lot more emphasis on the value for
        that player going forward.

        I had written Dobber about this app 6 weeks ago.

        My suggestion then was a tripartite ranking, reflecting values going forward at 1 year, 3 years and 5 years.

        Of course this implies a fair amount of extra work.

    What is the best way to use this list if playing for next year in a dynasty league? Are previous rankings available and would looking at rankings from a few months ago be a good way to strip out the impact of 2017 point totals? Schiefele, for example, has to be a top 10 player if you don’t care about what he offers you in 17/18.
